Izuku was denied the one thing that he loved: being a hero. At age 11, he was told he couldn't be a hero by the #1 hero and his idol, All Might. He had almost took his life at that point, but Eraser Head found him and took him home. Eraser Head said Izuku could become a hero if he put the work into it, regardless if he had a quirk or not, and Izuku took those words to heart. So he started a plan to become a vigilante; a hero who wasn't bound by the law. All Izuku wanted to do was save people, and he will. Izuku will shove it in All Might's face that he can in fact become a hero, all while being quirkless. Though not a legal one...

All Might, you got another thing coming

Izuku Midoriya is a good kid. A great kid, in fact. He's saved two little kids from big time villains, defeated Hero Killer Stain, and survived two villain attacks in only his first year at UA, the top hero school in the country. You wouldn't expect him to have three part-time jobs, an impossibly sick mother, and to live in a dingy gang infested neighborhood, working himself to the bone just for dinner. You wouldn't expect him to make money by doing street performances with a break dancing group, or winning bets with the many gangs in the neighborhood. You certainly wouldn't expect the hero-in-training to commit petty theft to provide for the four other poor families that live on his street. But it's all true. He lives in a poor neighborhood where no one has a decent job and there isn't a single hero, not even an underground one. The kids there have only been to the city once or twice, and none of them have parents. One girl does, and was left there willingly. They regularly have to fight off the vermin trying to take their food, and consider a single dollar a fortune. This is Izuku's home. and, if his teacher doesn't find out what's going on soon and save him, it may be his deathbed. I mean, is it really his fault a piece of the ceiling crashed onto his legs and completely shattered them? Disclaimer: I do not own Boku No Hero Academia. All characters belong to Kohei Horikoshi, I own nothing but the plot and mentioned OC'S. NOW COMPLETED. Started- 10/23/2020 Completed- 02/28/2021

16 parts Complete Mature
izuku was just 14 when he met all might and asked if he can be a hero but all might crushes his dreams and left him on a roof-top, what all might didn't know was just a hour before his so called "childhood friend" katsuki bakugo told him to "take a swan dive of the roof of the building and pray for a quirk in his next life". [izuku saved bakugo like the cannon] on his way home after saving bakugo he was kidnapped by the league of villains and he went under harsh training and abuse by them. he would be experimented on [that is how he got his quirks] and abused so much to the point he became numb to the pain, he would barely make a sound when he was stabbed or when training with the members of the league, if he was beaten he didn't even react very much. his eyes were dull and face emotionless. on day he went on a mission with the league but they were ambushed by some hero's the league managed to escape but they left izuku to fend them off. when izuku was fighting them the #2 hero endeavour burned his side pretty badly causing him to get captured by underground pro hero eraser head. izuku was given a deal to be the first in nezu's villain rehab witch he hesitantly agreed to. the story starts with izuku being introduced to class 2-A ^extra info^ izuku's quirks- regeneration/green flame/craft/healing emotionless deku dadzawa/ papmic deku??? (read to find out the ship) ^extra info for deku^ deku doesn't really talk to anyone other then, aizawa, nezu, mina, denki and ???. when he is a bit more comfortable but cuz he was a villain no one wants to talk to him. he lives in the dorms but on holidays he lives with his dadzawa and papmic. and he only shows emotion around ???, mina, denki and his dad and papa.

Izuku Midoriya was born quirkless, however when he was given All Might's power his life changed. But what happens when he has a chance encounter with a certain purple haired girl who has been dealing with what he always had to. There is a sequel story to this fanfic in my works, if you enjoyed this then give it a read. I don't own any of the artwork or the BNHA characters
